Confabulat:Chip & Dale are supposed to be a nuisance to Donald Duck and they don't wear clothes. I never accepted that TV show as canon.

This series was greenlit a few years into the Eisner era, and hit The Disney Channel on the heels of the success of The Rescuers Down Under. IMHO, Katzenberg & company actually wanted to make a Rescuers TV series -- but stopped just short of using Bernard and Miss Bianca for the leads ... opting for Chip & Dale, instead.

And I don't think "canon" ever entered into any of the Disney Afternoon cartoon shows. They had Rudyard Kipling characters flying planes and battling air-pirates, FFS.
